The Long Beach Merchants Association Kids Program supports their kid's meal and backpack program. Many families struggle to eat healthy meals and snacks every day. Food4kids Backpacks works to help low-income families bridge the time between nutritious meals provided at school. Each Friday afternoon elementary school children receive a backpack of healthy food and snacks. On Monday the child returns the empty backpack to their school nurse or the office to be restocked with food for the following Friday.
